BALTIMORE: 



ITS 6R0WTH A^D DEVELOPMENT, 




EORGE CALVERT, the founder of Maryland, while 
clerk in the Privy Council of Ergland, became a great 
favorite of James I. He was knighted and raised 
to the Irish peerage as Baron of Baltimore, in the 
county of Longford, Ireland, and was known from 
this time forward as Sir George Calvert, first Lord 
Baltimore. He visited in the year 1628 the colony 
Virginia and received upon his return to Ergland 
from his sovereign the promise of a grant of terri- 
tory in the region which he had just visited, but 
before his Charter was signed he died, (April 15th, 
1632). leaving his titles and estates to his eldest son, 
Cecilius Calvert, II. Lord Baltimore. 

On June 20th, 1632, a Charter was issued as follows : 
"All that part of the Peninsula lying in the part of 
America between the ocean on the east and the bay of 
Chesapeake on the west; divided from the residue there- 
of by a riglit line drawn from the promontory or headland called Watkins Point, 
situated upon the bay aforesaid, on the west, unto the main ocean on the east; 
and between that boundary on'the south, unto that part of the bay of Delaware on the 
north which lieth under the fortieth degree of north latitude from the equinoctial; and 
passing from said bay, called Delaware Bay, in a right line by the degree aforesaid, 
unto the true meridian of the firsi fountain of the river Potomac, thence verging to- 
wards the south, unto the farther bank of the same river, and following the same on the 
west and south, unto a certain place called Cinquack, situated near the mouth of said 
river, where it disembogaies into the aforesaid bay of Chesapeake, and thence by the 



i

shortest line unto the aforesaid promontory or place called Watkins Point.'' It was 
first intended to call the new Province Crescentia, but when the charter was presented 
to Charles I. for signature he substituted Maryland, (Terra Mariae) in honor of his Queen, 
Henrietta Maria of France. 

Nearly a century, after the charter was obtained, passed belore Baltimore was 
founded. About 1659 however Baltim )re County was erected and its bounds included 
the present Counties of Harford, Cecil and part of Kent. The County Seat of Balti- 
more County was Joppa, on the east side of the Gunpowder River, about half a mile 
south of the Phila. & Wil R. R. Joppa was a great Tobacco market, contained the 
Courthouse, the Jail, the St. Johns Church, Warehouses, Shipyards and some large 
stone Dwellings It has since disappeared and only the name of a lonesom ' County 
Road in Baltimore County, the old Joppa Road, reminds us of this once important 
County seat of Baltimore County. 

In consequence of the wise and liberal policy of religious toleration Maryland became 
under the auspices of a Roman Catholic Proprietary, the haven fi)r all who were sutler- 
ing religious persecution. Of him it was written: ''Never did people enjoy more 
happiness than the inhabitants of Maryland under Cecilius Calvert." 




BALTIMORE TOWN IN I729. 



The population steadily increased and in 1729 an act was passed by the Assembly "for 
erecting a town on the north side of the Patapsco River, Baltimore County, and for 
laying out sixty acres of land for which the sum of forty shillings per acre shall be 
paid." On the 12th of January, 1730, seven of the Commissioners appointed by the 
Assembly, Major Thomas Folley. Wm Hamilton, Wm. Buckner, Dr. George Walker, 
Richard Gist, Dr. George Buchanan and Col Wm. Hammond and Philip Jones, 
Deputy County Surveyor began to lay out the Town, beginning at a ' bounded red 
oak" on the waterside (at a spot not very far from the present corner of Light and 
German Streets). The line then ran northwesterly (to about Sharp Street) where it 
struck the Great Eastern Road. It followed this line northeast to a sharp angle on the 
precipice, (corner Saratoga and St. Paul Streets;) then ran down the devious line of 
Jones Falls to near its present intersection with Holliday Street ; and thence by water-

Citizens in case of fire a Fire Company was also organized in 1763. In this year the 
first newspaper called the "Maryland Journal" was established by William Goddard. 

Tlie death of the last of the Lords of Baltimore in 1771 appeared to break the chains 
which bound the people of Maryland to foreign alliance, and grave thoughts concern- 
ing independence took possession of their minds. The Convention of Maryland resolved 
that the people of Maryland join in association with the other colonies, and it was 
further recommended by the convention that such of the Freemen of Maryland as were 
from sixteen to fifty years of age, should form themselves into companies and use their 
utmost endeavors to make themselves masters of the military art. From this time 
burnished arms glittered in the mild sunlight of Maryland, the noise of the busy gun- 
shop and powdermill grated on the ear and the wild chorus of battle songs arose 
above the melodies of peace.

and necessities of 

the Revolutionary War developed dependence upon themselves and their own re- 
sources; various branches of manufacture, which had been prohibited under the 
British rule, were established to take the place of foreign products, such as a linen 
factory, paper and woollen mills, nail factories, etc. A considerable foreign trade was 
carried on and the Baltimore Clippers plowed the wide ocean from East to West. 
The progress made in commerce at this time led to the establishment of a Custom- 
house at Baltimore in 1780. 

With the advancement of Commerce the harbor of Baltimore began to attract'atten- 
tion and a board of port wardens wa s appointed. Lines of stages were established 
between Philadelphia and Baltimore, Frederick Town and Annapolis. The streets 
were extended and paved and substantial bridges put across the falls. The single 
markethouse was abondoned and three new ones erected in which market was held on 
different days. The three markets were th^ Centre Market, the Fells Point Market 
and the Hanover Market.

The revolution in France and the wars upon the Continent of Europe gave occasion 
for that period of Commercial enterprise and activity. The opportunity was grasped 
by the merchants of Baltimore with promptness and energy and resulted in a rapid 
growth in population and commercial importance.^ Our ships consisted principally of 
our celebrated "Baltimore Clippers," which showed a speed under sail now seldom 
attained by the best European Steamers. 

In 1796 the General Assembly of Maryland incorporated Baltimore Town into a city 
by the name of the City of Baltimore and the inhabitants thereof constituted as a body 
politic and corporate by the name of "The Mayor and City Council of Baltimore." 
James Calhoun was elected the first Mayor. The City contained then about 20,000 
people, 3,500 houses and about 200 warehouses. The export and import into Ballimo-e 
Port amounted in 1798 to $12,000,000. The demand abroad for our flour stimulated the

porated and in the same year the manufacturing interests of the city were increased 
by the erection of new factories upon Gwynn's and Jones' Falls. 

On January the 18th, 181 2, the war with England was declared by the United States 
Government On the 20th of December of the same year an act was passed for found- 
ing a university in the city and precints of Baltimore by the name of -'University ol Mary- 
land." This institution was founded and maintained upon the most liberal plan for the 
benefit of students of every country and religious denomination. 

In the war of 181 2, Maryland did all it could to aid and strengthen the hands of the 
Government and took the lead in fitting out efHcient privateers. 

In 1813, the first steamboat was introduced here, to run between Baltimore and 
Frenchtown. This application of the newly discovered power of steam soon began 
to exercise a powerful influence upon the business relations of Baltimore. 

In the summer of 1813 the Chesapeake Bay was blockaded by British fleets, contem- 
plating an attack on Washington, Annapolis and Baltimore. In defense of the state of

Maryland three regiments of infantry, each with a company of artillery, marched to Fort 
McHenry. The militia of Baltimore City stood high in the estimation of the general 
Government and of the people generally, and in placing reliance upon the militia of 
Baltimore the Executive of the United States was not deceived. With cheerfulness

they attended to the tirst calls of discipline and gave evidence, that they would always 
be found at their post in time of need. 

The enemy's fleet had now spent more than twelve months in blockading the Ches- 
apeake, and during that time had visited almost every river emptying into that bay. 



12 

About middle of August 1S14 a large increase of the British Force arrived in the Ches- 
apeake. The whole force soon began to ascend the river and landed at the vi'lage of 
Benedict, about 40 miles from Washington. 

On the 23th of 
August the British 
Army was in full 
march to Washing- 
ton, the American 
Army was put to flight 
and Washington was 
at the mercy of the 
intruders. T li e 
Capitol, President's 
House, the Treasury, 
War and Navy Offices, 
the Libraries and Na- 
tional Records, were 
all given to the flames. 
After the capture of 
Washington, the Brit- 
ish Army under Gen. 
Ross turned to Balti- 
more. On the lot'i of 
September, 1814, the 
enemy was ascending 
the Chesapeake with 
forty or fifty ships and 
ranged themselves in 
line to cannonadeFort 
McHewry and the 
City. They landed a 
force under command 
of General Ross. In 
the action. Gen. Ross, 
the commander of 
the British forces, was 
killed by two Balti- 
more youths, Wells 
and McComas, and 
Baltimore saved. 

Just before the 
bombardment of Fort 
McHenry by the Brit- 
ish, Francis S. Key- of 
Maryland, had gone 
with a flag of truce 
on board the Admiral's ship, to solicit the release of a friend who had been taken 
prisoner; he was not allowed to return until the attack was over. Believing that the 
fate of Baltimore was in jeopardy, he passed the night in extreme anxiety, until the 
dawning light showed the flag still flying above the ramparts. During this night, and

whilst pacing the deck, he composed the famous sontr, "The Star Spangled Banner," 
one rf the most spirit-stirriuL- poems ever written, which became the National Hymn. 

In the meantime the City had been saved from destruction through the heroism of 
those, who had lallen in that memorable action. To honor the memories of these 
luroes the Battle Monument, on Monument Square, was erected. The cornerstone 
was laid just one year after the memorable battle on the 12th of September, 1S15, but 
it was not finished until the year 1822. 

After thf close of the war. Commerce began to resume its former channels An in- 
flux of emigrants took place, and e.xtensive improv< ments in buildings were made. 
In 1S20 the Mercanti e Exchange, on Second Street, which now holds the Customhouse, 
and U. S. Tax Office, was erected, and in 1829 the Washington Mnmmient completed.

August the 28th, horse-power, which was first used as motive-power, was supplanted by 
steam. An engine constructed by Peter Cooper, of New York, was placed upon the 
road. It demonstrated for the first time in America what was to be the motive-power 
of the future. From that time onward our progress had been equal, though slow, 
receiving considerab e impetus from the opening of the B. & O. R. R. to the Ohio 
River in 1853. The Washington Branch was already completed in 1835. 

Under the energetic administration of President John W. Garrett, the lines of the 
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad have been extended through Southern Ohio, reaching 
Cincinnati, offering ihe Great West an outlet to the sea, while its southern lines con-

The first Newspaper, the ' Marylmid Journal and Advertiser'' was established by 
William Goddard of Philadelphia. The first issue appeared on the morning of August 
2oth, 1773; a folio sheet containing twelve columns. It was published weekly from the 
office on Market Street, (Baltimore Street), near South Lane, at ten shillings per 
annum. In 1795 the paper became daily under the title of ''The Bnllimore Daily

different denominations and are well supported by the respective churches. 

In 1837 the first iron building of the world was erected by Mr A. S Abell. the 
proprietor of the 'Sun." It was built entirely of iron, at a time, when business men 
generally were unwilling to try the experiment, and its usefulness and beauty have

abundantly attested the discernment of Mr. Abell. In 1844 Baltimore was again dis- 
tinguished by the erection of the first electric telegrajih in the world.

In 1858 the city bought out the old Water Company and commenced the construc- 
tion of the elaborate Water Works, which now supply our city with a drinking water, 
which hardly finds its equal in any other large city in the World. 

The civil war of 1861-5, between the Northern and Southern States, caused the loss 
to Baltimore, for the time being, of her southern trade, but since that period a reviving 
spirit of life and energy has been manifested. Domestic lines of steamers communicate 
with Boston, New York and the Southern ports, while two lines of steamships, the 
Northern German Lloyd to Bremen and the Allan Line to Liverpool, cater to the 
transatlantic trade. 

While these material improvements were devising for the future, Baltimore took 
other steps for intellectual advancement. A number of societies were incorporated 
and in 1821 the first Public School was opened in our City and the system inaugurated, 
which has proved materially useful to thousands of our citizens. 

On the 18th of October, 1867, the corner-stone of the City Hall was laid with appro- 
priate festivities and finished in 1875. It is one of the most elegant structures in the 
United States, occupying the entire square on which it is erected; it stands out in bold 
relief, impressing the observer at every point of view, with its gracefulness and grandeur. 
The front length of the building is 239 feet, the width 149 feet. It covers 29.000 square 
feet. Its general style is Rennaisance. The cost of the building, etc. was 52,270.000.

Baltimore is bountifully provided with Parks and Squares. The Druid Hill Park in 
the northwestern section of the city contains over i,cco acres of lard and ranks for 
varied natural scenery, perhaps unequalled in this country. Majestic forest trees,

and spreading groves invite the weary citizen; pleasure boats glide gracefully over the 
silvery bosom of the lake and swans and other aquatic birds move gracefully over the 
numerous waters which intersperse the grounds, while tame deer roam through woods 
and groves. Beautiful drives intersect the Park, walks have been arranged through 
the grounds and one may fairly revel in the ever changing picture and invigorating 
atmosphere. It contains also a Mansion House, with a fine view over sloping mead- 
ows and sparkling fountains, where various refreshments are offered at reasonable 
figures, and a Museum of Natural History in the Maryland Building. The building was 
erected by the State of Maryland to its commissioners at the Centennial Exhibition in 
Philadelphia and removed Irom there to the Park.

eastern section, a delightful place 
of resort for the citizens of that 
portion of the city, is a gift of J. 
Patterson, contains 76 acres. It 
offers a magnificent view of ihe 
city, the harbor and bay and the 
neighboring counties of Baltimore 
and Anne Arundel. 

In addition to these Parks a 
number of Public Squares, sodded 
down with turf and beautifully de- 
corated with shade trees, form res- 
ervoirs of health during the fierce 
heat of summer 

Baltimore is noted for i t s 
hotels and places of amusement. 
Ford's Grand Opera House, on 
Ivayette Street, the splendid Aca- 
demy of Music, on Howard St., 
the Concordia Opera House, the 
Holliday Street Theatre, on City 
Hall Square, Schlegel's Orches- 
trion Hall, with one of the largest 
Orchestrions of the world, and 
numerous smaller places of 
amusement, cater to the taste of 
an amusement loving public. 
It has one of the securest harbors in the United States, its entrance, which is a little 
more than a pistol shot in width, is defended by Fort McHenry and at all times deep 
enough, since the completion of the Craighill Canal, to allow ships to reach the lower 
wharves and schooners to unload their cargoes m the heart of the City, on the City 
Wharves. 

As a shipping port, Baltimore is rapidly ascending to a permanent place next to 
New York, taking from Philadelphia a position which that city has he'd for many 
years. The foreign export during the year of 18S6 amounted to 144,969,869 divided as 
follows : Wheat 10,498,507 bushels. Corn 14,070 835 bushels. Petroleum 12,663,560 blls. ,

Baltimore is the greatest Oyster Market in the United States and packs annually 
more oysters than any other city on the globe. The unlimited ^ujiply afforded by the 
Chesapeake and its tributaries and the superiority and delicate flavor of the Oysters, 
make it impossible for any other city in the world to compete with Baltimore in this 
regard. Eight hundred small schooners and over 3,000 smaller boats are engaged in 
the trade. An Oyster Navy enforces the Oyster Law of the State and the efforts of 
legislators have been directed to the regulation of the manner of taking Oysters that 
the beds may not be permanently injured. 

The City divided into 20 wards, counts 220 Churches, 9 Synagogues, 14 Orphan 
Asylums. 12 Hospitals, 10 Markethouses, 68 Schoolhouses, 6 Railroad Depots, etc. It 
has an inliabitance of over 370,000 souls, excluding the Belt.

BREWERIES OF BALTIMORE. 



Among ihe branches of trade which have given impetus to the growth and prosperity 
of our city are the Breweries of Baltimore. Millions of dollars are invested in the 
manufacture of Lager Beer and thousands of people find employment. The first 
Brewery in Baltimore was established in 174S, by Leonhardt & Daniel Barnitz. The 
building was situated on the Northeast Corner of Hanover and Conway Streets, on the 
lot now occuppied by the magnificent Malthouse of Messrs. Wehr, Hobelmann & Gott- 
lieb The founders named it "Washington Brewery", but only brewed Ale, Porter 
and Brown Stout. Another brewery was opened by a certain Granehut. on North 
Frederick Street, in 175S. The first, the "Pioneer Lager Beer Brewery", was erected in 
1846 by Geo. Rossmark, but the oldest Lager Beer Brewery in existence to day is Mr. 
Jacob Seeger s brewery, on the Frederick Road. The business steadily increased and 
to-day, not a halt century from the date when the first Lager Beer Brewery was started, 
we count in Baltimore 32 establishments, which brew this healthy and invigorating 
beverage. In 1877 the production ofthe 65 breweries in the Revenue District amounted 
to 247,722 blls.. the yearU' report for the year 1886 shows 529,111 blls., an increase 
of 2S1 389 blls. in the last nine years. 

In connection with the extensive manufacture of Lager Beer in our City, there are 
several large establishments for the production of Malt. Six Malthouses are now in 
operation, with an aggregate capital of about $2,000,000, employing over three hundred 
hands, their sales sum up probably to $5, coo 000.

MALT -^ HOUSE. 



The Eagle Brewery, located on Belair Avenue extended, was founded 
by Mr. J. H. Vonderhorst in 1866, and is to-day one of the largest and 
most complete establishment of the kind in the State. The brewery build- 
ing was erected in 1880 : is 62x58 in size, and five stories high. The malt 
house produces 100.000 bushels yearly. Every appliance for the manufac- 
ture of pure beer is here to be found, requiring the use of three large steel 
boilers, and two of De La Vergne Refrigerating Go's latest ice machines. 
They employ 32 hands : and their stables are filled with 30 of the finest 
draft horses. The yearly product amounts to 40,000 barrels. In 1880 
Mr. Henry Vonderhorst was admitted to an interest in the business, and 
the firm of J. H. Vonderhorst & Son deserves the success that has crowned 
their honorable efforts.

brew-house with all the modern improvements, two double-lined 
Ice machines with a capacity of one hundred and fifty tons, stables 
for 60 fine draft horses, and several other buildings are used in 
the manufacture of a beer which gained an enviable reputation. 
The yearly product amounts to about 60,000 barrels. A bottling 
establishment, connected with the brewery, in the handsome build

Es ist fuer die Culturgeschichte des amerikanischen Volkes im Allgemei- 
nen und fuer die Deutschen besonders waenselieuswerth, dass der gewaltige 
Antheil, welchen das deutsche Element an den Entwicklungen seines 
Adoptiv-Vaterlandes un'd unser Stadt speciell nahm, audi auf die Nacliwelt 
uebertragen und den Kindern und Kindeskindern die Kaempfe, Entbehrun- 
gen und Opferbereitwilligkeit ihrer Vorfahren vor's Auge gefuehrt werde. 

Es besteht zur Zeit kein deutsches Werk in Baltimore, welches diese 
Aufgabe geloest haette. Diese Luecke auszufuellen, haben wir uns ent- 
schlossen, eine Reihenfolge geschichtlicher Lebensbilder in kurzer entspre- 
chender Form und eleganter Ausstattung zu bringen. Die lllustrationen 
wurden eigens fuer das Werk angefertigt. 

Unser Vertreter wird binnen Kurzem seine Hundreise unter der deutschen 
Bevoelkerung antreten um Subscriptioinen entgegen zu nehmen und fuer 
unser Unternehmen Propaganda zu machen, wir empfehlen denselben dem 
Wohlwollen der Deutschen Bevoelkerung Baltimore's.
